The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is a United States government scientific agency offering weather, climate, ocean, and coastal data, forecasts and warnings. It supports environmental monitoring, severe weather preparedness, marine resource management and global observation services.

The Global Facility for Disaster Reduction and Recovery (GFDRR) is a World Bank-managed, multi-donor partnership that provides grants, technical assistance and tools to help low- and middle-income countries understand, manage and reduce disaster and climate risks. It supports resilience planning, risk analytics and disaster risk management integration into development.

The SENSES Toolkit is an interactive online platform offering modules to learn about, visualise and explore climate change scenarios. It supports decision-makers in understanding scenario approaches, climate impacts, mitigation and adaptation pathways, with practical guidelines for policy, finance and regional users.

The OECD Climate Action Dashboard is an interactive tool showing key indicators of national climate action and progress towards objectives such as net-zero greenhouse gas emissions. It provides comparable, country-level data to track climate mitigation, emissions trends and policy responses.

INFORM Climate Change Tool visualises climate-change risk projections, letting users explore future risk, hazard & exposure variables, vulnerability gaps and population changes under different scenarios and time points. It supports analysis of climate impacts on humanitarian and disaster risk via scenario comparison and country profiles.

Inevitable Policy Response (IPR) on ipr.transitionmonitor.com is a climate policy data and forecast platform that tracks global policy developments, scenarios and variables to help investors assess climate transition risk and alignment of portfolios with likely policy outcomes. It is supported by PRI and research partners.

Inevitable Policy Response (IPR) Transition Monitor is an online climate policy data platform tracking expected government climate actions by country and sector. It helps investors assess transition risk, forecast policy impacts and align portfolios with likely policy pathways to net-zero, based on expert forecasts and quarterly updates.

The IPCC AR5 Scenario Database, hosted by IIASA, provides access to long-term emissions and mitigation scenarios assessed in Working Group III’s Fifth Assessment Report. It enables users to explore modelled pathways on climate change, energy systems and greenhouse gas emissions, supporting analysis of transition risks and policy-relevant climate outcomes.

Climate Impact Lab uses historical climate and socioeconomic data with evidence-based, data-driven analysis to quantify climate change impacts and economic costs at local and sector levels, informing policymakers, investors and business decisions, including an empirically-derived estimate of the social cost of carbon.

Carbon Tracker’s Reports page hosts research analysing how supply, demand and climate policy affect fossil-fuel exposed companies and markets. It provides scenario analysis, methodological frameworks and sector-specific insights for investors and policymakers on climate-related financial risk and the energy transition.

Aqueduct Floods is an interactive tool by WRI that maps current and projected riverine and coastal flood risk globally. It enables users to assess exposure, urban damage, and economic impacts under different climate scenarios, supporting risk analysis, resilience planning, and investment decision-making at country and sub-national levels.

This guide outlines pathways for starting or transitioning into sustainable finance careers. It explains ESG integration, sustainable and impact investing, sector roles, required skills, barriers and transition strategies, supported by Australian context, expert insights and case studies from Pollination and Aware Super.

This commentary assesses risks of a self-reinforcing “hothouse Earth” trajectory driven by accelerating warming, feedback loops and tipping points. It reviews evidence on climate sensitivity, overshoot scenarios and cascading tipping elements, warning that current emissions pathways heighten irreversible risks and require urgent mitigation and precautionary governance.

This paper estimates that global temperature increases have far larger macroeconomic damages than local measures suggest. Using time-series evidence and a neoclassical growth model, it finds a 1°C rise reduces world GDP by over 20% long term, implying substantial welfare losses and a high social cost of carbon.

The IPBES Business and Biodiversity assessment evaluates how businesses depend on and impact biodiversity and nature’s contributions to people, reviews measurement approaches, and outlines options for action to manage risks and align business practices with biodiversity outcomes, supporting Target 15 of the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework.

The Global Pension Transparency Benchmark is a benchmark series initiated in 2021 that assesses how clearly major pension funds disclose information on value-generation for stakeholders. It evaluates public disclosures across four equally weighted factors — governance and organisation, performance, costs and responsible investing — using a structured scoring methodology. The purpose is to promote better transparency and accountability in pension reporting. Finance professionals can use the benchmark to compare disclosure practices, inform improvements in fund reporting and align with evolving global standards.

Guidance from UNEP FI and the Equator Principles on integrating project-related finance into nature-based risk assessments. It outlines frameworks, governance and disclosure expectations to help financial institutions identify, assess and manage biodiversity, water and pollution-related risks at project and portfolio levels.
